^a Number of times a given variable was observed in four out of five trained models.

^b Minor allele frequency.

^c Variables used to determine disease risk by the GAW17 simulators.

The top most frequent variables occurred in at least four out of five trained models for models 1 and 3. All models were run for the 200 simulation data sets.
